The map on the hyperlink page is interactive…
Pharmacists are required more and more to rely on the support of technicians. But some states have seemingly placed very little necessity that the “technicians” who is assisting the Pharmacists to have any education or proper training. Only FIVE states got a “A” while THREE states got a “ZERO”. The primary function/charge of the Boards of Pharmacies is to protect the public’s health and safety. You can judge from this map what states care about making sure that the technicians assisting Pharmacists are really qualified. All states have limits on the number of technicians one Pharmacist can oversee… some states limits are TWO technicians per Pharmacists other states the ratio is UNLIMITED. Kentucky is one of those with UNLIMITED and they received a “D” on this scorecard.
